Emergency crews are searching for a man and woman who jumped into the Big Sioux River in South Dakota to try to save a six-year-old child. The boy is safe, but Sioux Falls authorities said on Friday that the effort to find the two adults is now considered a recovery and no longer a rescue mission. Man and Woman Save Child, Go Missing in River The man and woman jumped into the river near Sioux Falls around 6 p.m. Thursday after the young boy fell in, according to local NBC affiliate KDLT. The woman is related to the child but is not his mother. The man is not a relative of the boy, KDLT reported. “By the time I got there he was already in there and they had him by the arm,” Napoleon Ducheneaux, a friend of the man who dove in, told KDLT. “They had the kid in his arm and he slipped and fell. And then not too long after that, the kid popped up a little bit to the right and climbed up the rocks by himself.” The two adults found themselves in trouble. “I heard him and the woman talking. He said something like, ‘You hold on to me, I’ll hold on to you.’ And I kept telling them to come to my voice,” Ducheneaux said. The two then slipped under the water Sioux Falls Fire Rescue Chief Jim Sideras said, “We have some issues with very thick ice that we are trying to address. We also have a high flow of water because of ice melting. “We have a lot of foam. We have on the scene crews who are trained in swift water rescue and ice rescue. We also have on site a dive team.” “Because of the thickness of the ice, it’s not possible for that team to go in.” Sideras reported that the boy was safe with family members. “I was with him and he’s with family members, and he’s doing fine,” Sideras said.

Bachelor Nation is rallying behind Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici . Or so it would appear, given a pair of news stories in the last day: Jason and Molly Mesnick welcoming their first child, a baby girl. Ashley Hebert and J.P. Rosenbaum sharing honeymoon pics! It’s as if these couples – two huge success stories from the ABC franchise – are trying to prove to Sean and Cat that it is possible to beat the odds. Nearly three months after their wedding, Ashley and J.P. are going strong. The pair jetted off to French Polynesia for their honeymoon on February 17. “We were both on the same page – beaches, bikinis, and Bellinis!” she told Us . Sounds like a good page to be on, especially if ABC and/or Us foots the bill. Will Sean and Catherine go on a honeymoon of their own one day soon? YES. You can tell. They are made for each other. Maybe … not convinced, but not writing them off. No chance. I don’t see the connection! View Poll »
He may not have come out of the closet until last summer, but Anderson Cooper tells The Huffington Post in a new interview that he’s never questioned his sexuality, not even when “I was a little kid.” “I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t aware of it, even before I knew what it was or the name of it,” Cooper says . Moreover, the CNN host – who faced oral sex simulation from Kathy Griffin on New Year’s Eve – think “being gay is a blessing” and he “couldn’t be more proud” of his preference. In 1988, Cooper’s brother committed suicide – and Anderson opens up to the website about that event and how he links it to his sexuality. “If you feel like an outsider, you tend to observe things a lot more,” he said. “Early on I felt very much like an observer, because I knew I was gay, I knew I was somehow different. “If you learn the language of loss early, I think you seek out others who have experienced the same thing, who speak that same language of loss.” GLAAD will honor Cooper on March 16 with the Vito Russo Award, an accolade given to a LGBT member who has made an effort to promote equality. Sounds like it couldn’t go to a more deserving individual.
Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici got engaged Monday on The Bachelor finale , then went and dropped the “bombshell” that they want to marry on ABC. The future looked nothing but bright for the gushing couple last night, but the honeymoon (so to speak) is over, and the real work has yet to begin. Will their love last – and will they actually make it to the altar? Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici: The Proposal As we know with franchise, the track record is not what you’d call good. Just a handful of unions have resulted from 16 Bachelors and seven Bachelorettes. In recent years, however, the results have somewhat improved, thanks to Jason Mesnick and Molly Malaney and Ashley Hebert and J.P. Rosenbaum. Past performance is not a perfect indicator of course, because every season – and couple – is different. Sean and Cat certainly have great chemistry. Still, some critics say that while the smitten pair has a blast together, there is something lacking, and building blocks of lasting love may elude them. Reaction to Sean and the happy-go-lucky, hilarious, bubbly Catherine Giudici definitely improved as the season progressed, but is still mixed. Some fans preferred him with runner-up Lindsay Yenter, third-place finisher AshLee Frazier or even The Bachelorette-in-waiting Desiree Hartsock . They certainly seem confident in their future, though, and if anyone seems grounded enough to make it last through this difficult phase, it’s Sean. Then again, he’s already going Dancing With the Stars … and we know how well that worked out for Jake Pavelka. We know, they’re not the same at all. Still, it makes you wonder. Can any relationship survive this adjustment period as the duo acclimates to real life? Some can, but some can not. Will Cat and Sean beat the odds? Time will tell. But you tell us for now: Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici: Will they last? YES. You can tell. They are made for each other. Maybe … not convinced, but not writing them off. No chance.

Let’s face it: Jessica Simpson has seen slimmer days . But the singer does have a valid, adorable excuse. His name is Maxwell Drew Johnson . And Kendra Wilkinson is simply aghast that folks are giving Simpson a hard time for not yet having lost all the weight she gained carrying her son to term. “That just breaks my heart,” Wilkinson tells Yahoo! OMG of the criticism leveled at Simpson’s figure. “I feel for her. I was in the same boat. People just need to mind their own business. That’s a woman who just gave birth. “”Her first priority right now is her child. Her first priority is not losing the weight. You should be proud of her for that. A lot of people just dump their kids off at nannies and lose the weight overnight. We should all be proud of her for being real and taking control and making priorities.” That may be the most intelligent thing Kendra has ever said. Simpson, meanwhile, is profiting mightily off her body. She recently signed a $4 million deal with Weight Watchers . [Photos: WENN.com]
Another tabloid cover of Kate Middleton is creating quite a stir in Great Britain – but this one is actually real. Unlike the photoshopped image of Middleton with yellow teeth , an Australian magazine called Woman’s Day has published an image of Kate and Prince William on their honeymoon on North Island, a tiny archipelago in the Seychelles. It’s unclear how a paparazzi member sneaked on to the tropical paradise, as it’s rumored to be home to more tortoises than people. But one insider said the shutter bug likely earned an enormous payday for the pic. “Any shot of them on their honeymoon was going to go for at least half a million but because Kate is in a bikini I would estimate that this is a million dollar shot,” celebrity business journalist Jo Piazza told Yahoo! Shine. It’s true. For all the Kate Middleton fashion trends out there, best of luck trying to find another photo of the would-be-queen in a bathing suit. Sources say the royal couple is “distraught” over the leaking of the picture, as they went to great lengths to keep the honeymoon destination a secret from the press. Reports say that coast guard patrolmen and security teams were even stationed around the bungalow in which Kate and William stayed. Clearly, someone either messed up or was in on the tabloid scoop, however. Over a dozen additional images of Middleton and her prince swimming and strolling are featured inside the issue.
That swirl love is just so sweet, even if Tiki had to kick a pregnant wife to the curb for it… Tiki Barber and fiancée Traci Lynn Johnson may have postponed their Hamptons nuptials last month, but the couple looked like they couldn’t wait for their honeymoon at the Einstein Emerging Leaders launch party at Three Sixty on Thursday. The pair showed up looking sharp at the TriBeCa benefit for the Children’s Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, but they apparently stole off at one point to play doctor themselves. “The two of them spent the first part of the night enjoying sushi, sliders and fresh pasta while mingling with guests and listening to DJ Louie XIV spin,” said a spy. But after an hour of mingling, they slipped away to a private room. “Some staffers went into the room a few different times and saw them deep in conversation on the couch, which then turned into some canoodling in the corner,” said a spy at the fete for 500. “They were there for over an hour!” After their quality time together, the lovebirds emerged to party some more, then headed into the night: “They took the party to where I can only assume would be home,” a spy joked after the couple’s romantic tête-à-tête at the bash, which was stocked with young professionals interested in supporting health-care research. The ex-Giant told us yesterday: “Our good friend Kyle Widrick invited us, and we went to support him. The cause is obviously important, and it was a fun crowd, so we enjoyed it. “Both Traci and I have been burning both ends of the candle, working full-time and getting through charity season, so we stole away to have some quiet time because I hadn’t seen her all day. We actually went back into the party for another hour or so, then [left] because I was wiped.” He added the couple’s wedding plans — moved back from May so Barber’s divorce could be finalized — are “going well, keeping on schedule.” And when we mentioned he and Traci — who rocked a flirty red party dress and strappy heels — were looking smart at the Einstein bash, he quipped, “Traci is always making me look bad because she’s so damn beautiful.” What a cornball! Does Tiki have a job yet? Just asking because these two seem to do nothing but go to charity events and we thought you had to spend money to do that… Check out some photos of Tiki and his homewreckin’ Becky earlier this week at the Annual Casino Jazz Night Benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters Of New York at Cipriani 42nd Street below: Source GettyImages
